Tasting Notes
Deep bright ruby, opaque core, slightly watery rim. Delicate reductive spiciness, tobacco herbal touch, fine nuances of blackberry confit, and mineral slate notes. Juicy, ripe cherry fruit, fine sweet fruit, silky tannins, freshly structured, saline nuances on the finish. It shows good length, is already drinking well, and makes you want a second glass.

More about the tastingStrong ruby with purple reflections and broad rim brightening. Delicate blackberry, a hint of tobacco, fine dark-berry fruit and a hint of cloves: an inviting bouquet. Fine structure, salty, elegant plate with the fruit of red cherries and citrus notes in the aftertaste. Sticks well and is a good food companion.
